The effect of SSI and impulsive motions on optimum active controlled MDOF structure
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021)
In this study, active controlled ten-story structures including soil-structure interaction (SSI) are investigated under different type of ground motions (near-fault and far ground motions) defined in FEMA P-695 to show the ...
Buckling analysis and stacking sequence optimization of symmetric laminated composite plates
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021)
Symmetric laminated composite plates are frequently used in structural design due to their high strength to weight ratio. The stacking sequence of these laminates is known to have a major impact on the performance of these ...
Optimisation of shear and lateral-torsional buckling of steel plate girders using meta-heuristic algorithms
(Mdpi, 2020)
The shear buckling of web plates and lateral-torsional buckling are among the major failure modes of plate girders. The importance of the lateral-torsional buckling capacity of plate girders was further evidenced when ...
Harmony search optimisation of dispersed laminated composite plates
(Mdpi, 2020)
One of the major goals in the process of designing structural components is to achieve the highest possible buckling load of the structural component while keeping the cost and weight at a minimum. This paper illustrates ...
Novel metaheuristic-based tuning of PID controllers for seismic structures and verification of robustness
(Elsevier Ltd, 2021)
In the present study, an active structural control using metaheuristic tuned Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) type controllers is presented. The aim of the study is to propose a feasible active control application ...

(2020)
The locations of structural members can be provided according to architectural pro-jects in the design of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. the design of dimensions isthe subject of civil engineering, and these designs ...
A review on the mechanical properties of natural fiber-reinforced composites
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021)
Natural fibers have drawn attention from the researchers and engineers in recent years due to their mechanical properties comparable to the conventional synthetic fibers and due to their low cost, eco-friendliness, and ...
Optimum active controlled SDOF structures under pulse-type ground motions via harmony search
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021)
In this study, the active controlled single degree of freedom (SDOF) structures with 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 s period are investigated under various pulse-type ground motions (1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 s) to optimally tune the parameters ...
Metaheuristic optimization of laminated composite plates with Cut-Outs
(MDPI-Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2021)
The stacking sequence optimization of laminated composite plates while maximizing the structural performance or minimizing the weight is a subject investigated extensively in the literature. Meanwhile, research on the ...
CO2 emission and cost optimization of concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns using metaheuristic algorithms
(MDPI, 2021)
Concrete-filled steel tubular columns have garnered wide interest among researchers due to their favorable structural characteristics. To attain the best possible performance from concrete-filled steel tubular columns while ...
